B. Skaggs to be presi dent of the National Chain Store Grocers’ association at its annul I convention in Chicago today. This association is composed of the larger operators f chain grocer* stores in this country and represents abut othirty thousand stores. Within the last ten years chaii stores have taken an unusual po Bition in the business of the nation and today are recognized as a great economic factr oin helping humanit;’ solve the problem of the ever rising cost of the distribution of necessi- ties. Mr. Skaggs has rare business ability, Beginning with one small store at American Falls, Idaho, in 1915, he has builded day by day until now the Skaggs stores have food distributing stations in the principal cities in the states of Ore gon, Idaho, Utah, Washington, Colo rado, Wyoming, Nevada, Nebraska and California, which furnish tm ployment to fifteen hundred ener getic, progressive young people. This great progress is the rewarl of honest industry built upon thi prit principles of character, integ rity, service and helpfulness. Mr. Skaggs has carefully selected an I personally supervised the training of his managers and their assistants; inavpumt'nr n liberal plan of proft shr„ig which has attracted men anl women of an unusually high type to his organization. He ever makes plain the fact that the temptations in business are s great that it demands the highes type of conscience, the clearest brain, and the most genuine men hood to properly conduct a Skagg store; further reminding each em ployer, “that he who would help hill sei fmust help humanity; we bene fit ourselves only as we benefit others.” In the recognition of M. P. Skaggs as their leader, the Natior- al Chain stores pay tribute to a great western organization of west ern men.
